  • Gazan civilians are not being “targeted”. It is Hamas and Hezbollah who are intent on genocide. I mean they actual say it - why not believe them?

    If Israel is intent on genocide they aren’t very good at it. They could have wiped out ⅔ of Gazans in the first week after October 7 but chose not to. Meanwhile Hamas and Hezbollah to this day call for ridding the Levant of all Jews but Cannot.

    Trump’s talk of “evicting” Gazans to Libya is disturbing. That would be ethnic cleansing.


  • 50,000 died of a population of 2 million (many of them militants). 2.5%, while a tragic loss of life, does not compare with the Holocaust where one-third of the Jewish population worldwide, and two-thirds of European Jews, had been wiped out.

    Many more lives will be lost by Hamas not surrendering but it is a sacrifice Tankies in the comfort of their Western homes are willing to make.





    1. Hamas started the war.

    2. By Hamas’ own count, 40,000 Palestinians died in the first year of the war

    3. By Hamas’ own count, less than 10,000 Palestinians died in the second year of the war

    4. Aid has been consistently flowing into Gaza from Egypt AND Israel with a few pauses that were almost immediately lifted every time.

    5. The leader of Hamas that was killed was once a prisoner in lsrael. He had a life threatening condition that required brain surgery, Israel provided it for free and saved his life.

    6. Israel has Muslim Arab parliament members, a Muslim Arab supreme court justice, and Muslim Arabs working as professors at its universities.

    7. Israel has peaceful relations with Jordan and Egypt, Muslim Arab majority nations. It’s actually super easy to get along with Israel, just don’t attack.

    8. The ‘new’ leader of Hamas may have died yesterday in Gaza. He was operating immediately under a working hospital, one of countless examples of Hamas purposely endangering citizens so that they die for negative online clout.

    9. After a year into the war, Israel took over a major Hamas base that was right under UNWRA headquarters. Since then, they have been able to keep the civilian population largely out of harm’s way, though imperfectly, which is why the death toll was largely reduced in the second year of fighting.

    Taken together, the conclusion is that this is a messy and ugly war. But it is not a genocide.
